Custom Clothing Labels: The Complete Guide
Choosing the right clothing label is one of the most important branding decisions for any apparel company. Your label is the first thing a customer feels when they pick up your garment — and the last thing they see before every wear. At New York Custom Labels, we manufacture all major label types in-house, giving you expert guidance on which material, weave, and application method is right for your brand.
Woven Labels vs. Printed Labels
Woven labels use colored threads woven directly into the fabric, creating a premium look that won't fade or crack over time. They're the industry standard for brand labels and are available in damask (fine detail), satin (smooth finish), and cotton (natural texture) substrates.
Printed labels use ink applied to a fabric base — offering full-color capability including gradients and photographs, making them ideal for care labels and complex designs.

Heat Transfer & Tagless Labels
Heat transfer labels are applied directly to the garment using a heat press — no sewing required. The result is a tagless label that's completely invisible to the wearer. This is the preferred method for activewear, performance apparel, and children's clothing where comfort is paramount.
TPU labels offer a similar heat-applied approach but with a raised, rubberized finish that adds a modern, technical aesthetic.

Specialty Labels
Sublimation labels deliver photographic-quality results by embedding dye directly into satin fabric. Tyvek labels are made from synthetic paper that's virtually tear-proof and water-resistant — commonly used for size tabs and care instructions that need to withstand heavy washing.
Every label type we offer starts at just 5 pieces minimum with free artwork setup and 24-hour digital proofs.
